We went with our granddaughters and their parents. Although the girls (ages 5 and 7 had been the previous week with their other grandparents they really wanted a repeat visit. I was pleasantly surprised to find nearly all areas of the park were accessible to my mobility scooter, and delighted that our dog was welcome on a lead in most areas. (He was not allowed near the wildcat enclosures or in the cafe) There were enough indoor areas to attract should the weather be unsettled. The girls loved holding the newly hatched chicks , and close encounters with a tortoise. We bought bags of food and they enjoyed feeding the greedy goats. There was plenty of outdoor play equipment in an excellent playground and an indoor play barn. The cafe had excellent reasonably priced food, and views over the glen to die for. A thoroughly good day out
